Record 49 from 'Women in 20th-century Ireland – 1922-1966: sources from the Department of the Taoiseach database'

Description:

Memorandum for the Government from the Department of Health regarding equal pay for the post of Chief Medical Adviser. The salary scale for the post was differentiated on a sex basis, as in the case of other professional posts in the Civil Service. However , the medical profession is' strongly opposed to such practises' while the British Medical Journal and the Lancet refuse to accept advertisements for posts having a lower salary rate for women. For these reasons and also because he is satisfied that there is no female doctor in these islands who possess the requisite qualifications, the Minister proposed that the scale of pay advertised should be applicable for men and no reference to women included.

Record 50 from 'Women in 20th-century Ireland – 1922-1966: sources from the Department of the Taoiseach database'

Description:

Memorandum for the government regarding the post of the Chief Medical Adviser containing the views of the Department of Finance. The Minister considers the suggested solution proposed, that one scale be fixed for a married man and another scale for a single man and a woman. However, he feels such an approach would discourage men from taking up employment in the service. Instead the Minister states that the advertisement for the post should be expressed in terms confined to male entrants with the appropriate salary advertisements. 'The realities of the situation, well appreciated by all parties, are that the Minister for Health has no intention of appointing a female Chief Medical Adviser.'
